Linkin Park To Perform Secret Charity Show For Japan

August 5, 2011

On August 31, Linkin Park and Japan’s best-selling artist B’z will perform at a small intimate show at a secret venue in Los Angeles to benefit Music for Relief and their work with Save the Children to provide much needed earthquake and tsunami relief in Japan.

The only way to get tickets to the event is to raise $500 for the cause by creating a fundraising page at SecretShowForJapan.com. Tickets are limited, only the first 500 people to reach the fundraising goal will get invited to the show.

100% of net proceeds benefit children affected by the multiple disasters in Japan to provide child care services and financial support to children at risk of not continuing their studies, psychological support, as well as play zones for those who cannot play outside due to radiation fears.

Founded by two-time Grammy winning/multi-platinum rock band Linkin Park, Music for Relief is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing aid to victims of natural disasters and the prevention of such disasters. Since its inception in 2005, Music for Relief has raised over $4 million for victims of multiple disasters across four continents and also supports environmental programs to help in prevention and mitigation of future natural disasters. The organization was recently recognized by UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon for the Download to Donate program to raise funds and awareness in the aftermath of the Haiti earthquake.
